July 2010 - AMERICA THE EXCEPTIONAL: Why it's the greatest nation in human history
"America is - is no longer, uh, what it could be - what it, it once was. And I say to myself, I don't want that future for my children." - Barack Obama to a 7-year-old girl asking why he wanted to be president, Elkhart, Ind., Aug. 6, 2008
Whether Barack Obama is apologizing about America to a 7-year-old child or to European and Muslim world leaders, there is no longer any doubt about which direction he's taking America: Down.
- "Given our interdependence, any world order that elevates one nation or group of people over another will inevitably fail." - President Barack Obama in Cairo, Egypt, June 3, 2009
- "Whether we like it or not, we remain a dominant military superpower." - President Obama at close of two-day nuclear security summit in Washington, D.C., April 13, 2010
- "[The world] cannot depend as much on the U.S. as it did in the past." - U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner to the BBC, June 25, 2010
By every objective measure, it's clear that President Obama and those surrounding and guiding him are firmly committed to ending, once and for all, America's economic, military and moral leadership in the world.
However, the problem with that, as the July issue of Whistleblower magazine powerfully documents, is that history proves the only thing that has prevented the world from plunging into utter darkness and tyranny has been America's leadership, strength, courage, generosity and legendary liberty - in short, its exceptionalism.
"'AMERICA THE EXCEPTIONAL' is the antidote to Obama and his vision of a dependant, enfeebled, American socialist utopia," said David Kupelian, managing editor of WND and Whistleblower. "It transports readers to the real America - the nation they loved as a child, the 'shining city on a hill' our founders gave us and the Pilgrims dreamed about and courageously pursued."
As Kupelian writes in this issue:
"Out of the thousands of years of suffering and oppression that comprise human history, a light burns brightly for just a couple of hundred years. The American experiment: a revolutionary idea that the common man can be free, master of his own government, so long as he himself is ruled by God. For a short time this brilliant young country dazzles all the world and all of history, not just with its power and productivity and progress, but with its goodness."
No question about it. For two centuries America has been the leader of the free world and inspiration to the unfree world. It has sent its soldiers to fight and die in foreign lands to protect the innocent, it has led the world in science, technology, manufacturing, agriculture, business and philanthropy - but above all, it has been a beacon of liberty. But that beacon today is under withering assault.

"Despite the attempted socialist transformation of our nation under Obama," said Kupelian, "in November Americans have a chance, perhaps our last chance, to restore America's exceptionalism and to reconnect with her original, transcendent purpose."
"If you want to re-experience the real America," he concluded, "and be refreshed and strengthened for the battles ahead, you must read this very special and inspiring issue."
